    that's why its important to get CL - especially with the expanded format.

    João Palhinha

    one of the issues is he covers a lot of ground and ends up winning the ball at the edges of the park - i think the team would be more effective if he secured just the central 50% width and leave the 25% on each side to others. its a mess in midfield right now. we press but it is very random...

    ----------Vicario Porro Danso Romero Udogie ----Gray----Sarr --Tel --- Xavi----odobert ----- Richy we shouldn't put out our best team - the league should be priority give the boys some useful minutes, hopefully Richy scores another worldie so his transfer price goes up

    that's the issue - is it frank or the players or both

    recruitment needs to be better too. kudus was excellent, but letting both mgw and eze slip through is costing us plenty now.

    João Palhinha

    see what caicedo did yesterday - he is a destroyer plus. doesn't go around to try to win all tackles but falls back into a structure so that the team can play their part. only destroys to punish. if Paulinha needs to come close he needs to win the ball and play a useful ball that can turn into...

    Xavi Simons

    no its not xavi's fault but he is not the solution now either

    ***Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea***, Premier League, Nov 1st 2025 at White Hart Lane

    i think he felt responsible and ashamed or the goal and did not feel up to it to face the fans. quite a mess up between him and xavi to be honest

    ***Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea***, Premier League, Nov 1st 2025 at White Hart Lane

    its a very broad observation and its not wrong, but it fails to pin point the root cause. for instance are bentancur and palhinha too defensive? do they have the ability to turn ball recovery into attack? if not who does? is there a structure for Xavi to operate in? Like Kudus, he is often...

    Xavi Simons

    But he's not what we need now when madders and kulu are out long term. MGW was the right profile and too bad it didn't happen - Xavi has been a poor signing and is creating more unnecessary pressure for TF.

    ***Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea***, Premier League, Nov 1st 2025 at White Hart Lane

    I thought the team put up a good fight despite lots of questions about the performance Lots of fight and even TF looked frustrated and disappointed at the end We played better than last season - so an improvement. And Chelsea scored only through a mixup between Xavi and VDV. Vicario, Kudus and...

    caicedo's football intelligence is underrated. he's like a shark... only pouncing when he smells blood and goes all the way. both efficient and effective.

    ***Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea***, Premier League, Nov 1st 2025 at White Hart Lane

    its a mess in midfield - we have 4 players just chasing down the ball like schoolkids with no sense of structure. the result is often when we do get the ball, we have too many players close to the ball and none to play out to. however there is always a striker waiting up front but the...

    in the chelsea game caicdeo had more impact overall than both bentancur and palhinha

    Xavi Simons

    unfortunate that he was called up because of a sudden concussion injury in the chelsea game, but xavi is so weak and slow it was hard watch and unbelievable to think about the price we paid for him. it was probably a poor decision made after the mgw debacle and maddison injury, but don't we...

    João Palhinha

    I think Paulinha is a pure destroyer and doesn't have the tools to be a modern hybrid midfielder. He gets the ball but we are slow to transition into attack. its one and the same problem to me. A big caveat here is Bentancur's role as they have to work together in maintaining a presence in...

    Lol if Levy were still here, I think we'd see one of the hotels converted into a THFC Hospital. And also THFC Medical Insurance.
